Symptoms of Tonsillitis

Each person with tonsillitis may not experience all of the symptoms. The main symptom of Tonsillitis is a sore throat. In infectious tonsillitis, other symptoms vary depending on whether the infection is viral or bacterial (usually strep throat):

Some other major symptoms are:

• Difficulty during Swallowing
• Fever.
• Headache.
• Tiredness.
• Swollen Glands in the Neck.
• Abnormal redness of tonsils.
• Weird voice.
• Chills.
• A yellow or white coating on the tonsils.
• Swollen glands in the neck.
• Bad Breath.

Because symptoms of viral and bacterial tonsillitis usually overlap, it is very difficult to distinguish between them based on symptoms alone. Usually, if the patient has prominent cough and nasal symptoms - then we can say that there are more chances that the cause is viral. While on the other hand, when the tonsils swell and become coated and also there is a sore throat then the cause is usually bacterial caused by a streptococcus bacteria.
